Today is just one of the 365 days of the year to be thankful for the blessings in life. Take a moment to reach out to those around you who may or may not be aware of how grateful you are to have them in your lives. I am personally thankful for so many people who have blessed my life:
My parents: who gave me life.
My husband: who has stood by me during all of the ups and downs that have allowed me to create the beautiful life I live today.
Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CSSD, is living the life of her dreams, treating patients with eating disorders, teaching other professionals to help, and most recently, starting a career website for students and new graduates interested in the field. As a former anorexic and bulimic I understand first hand the importance of the work she is doing and today, she shares her story…welcome Jessica!
I get a lot of email and letters from people asking me to share more specifically what I experienced while I was anorexic and bulimic. Some don’t think anyone understands what they are going through, but I do as I have been there myself. What I did learn from my experience is that wherever I focus my mind is where my mind will go. I realize it seems difficult to those who are in the midst of fighting this demon, but the key is to focus on being healthy and strong, both body and soul. I’m not going to kid you and say it was a quick recovery, it was not. There were days when I just wanted to die as I thought that would make the pain go away. I am grateful that I didn’t die and that I am here today to share and encourage others with my story.
